The field is set for the 2017 Stanley Cup Finals . Kunitz scored in double overtime to lift Pittsburgh over the Ottawa Senators 3-2 in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference final on Thursday night. It has made things all the more hard, but the Penguins apparently are down to three injured players - forwards Patric Hornqvist and Tom Kuhnhack...

Even though the final was never in doubt, the crowd at the Garden starting chanting, "Let's go Celtics " in the closing minutes. Bradley promised that the Celtics would be better in 2017-18. "Like it hurt me". I couldn't get past him. The 33-point blowout was the most lopsided loss by the Celtics in an elimination game and came after they ...

Law enforcement in the United Kingdom continued to expand its investigation Wednesday, citing a wider terror network and arresting at least six people in connection with the attack. "Forgive me", Abedi told his mother Samia Tabbal, Associated Press (AP) reports . He said many experts, including British intelligence professionals, see a...

The Red Devils boss guided his team to a tactically shrewd win over Ajax and he wasted little time in rounding on his detractors. Jose Mourinho's pride was clear after Manchester United pulled together to win the Europa League , embracing the spirit shown by those in their home city since Monday's attack.

Russia's Svetlana Kuznetsova defeated Dinara Safina 6-4, 6-2 to win her maiden French Open title in 2009. "I got to number one in the world at the end of last year and there's been some times this year where it has been hard to keep up the motivation and set new goals", Murray said.

On Friday, Raonic lost in the semifinals at the Lyon Open . He is 6-4 against top 35, 3-2 against top 20 and 1-2 against top 10. However, with the stars more evenly distributed on both sides of the women's draw, Konta's mission looks tricky, in form or otherwise.

Although he has often wasted his talent with his antics and his inability to handle frustration, Frenchman Paire is a gifted player anyone should handle with care, nine-time Roland Garros champion Nadal said. "As I said many times , unfortunately for tennis and unfortunately for the spectators, the top four can not play forever". Bookies favou...

Smith said the Cavs need their star to be more aggressive than he showed Sunday. All is not lost - far from it. Cleveland does not lead the 2-0 anymore. "I'm not going to criticize him one bit", Celtics coach Brad Stevens said after his team won on a late three-point shot by Avery Bradley. "He sent everybody a text, and then Kelly just ca...

Keselowski was forced to run the rest of the event on the primary tires. Bowyer headed back out onto the track with the lead and with two different tire builds on his auto. Larson was feeling selfish, though, and won the first two stages, preventing an extra driver from clinching a spot in the final 10. Busch took advantage of Brad Keselowski ...

While Irving and James were scoring, Kevin Love dominated the glass with 17 rebounds to go with 17 points. The friendly bounces on the game-winning shot by Bradley weren't the only good fortune the Celtics saw on Sunday night - Cavaliers star LeBron James had one of his worst outings of his playoff career.

The only manager in United's history to win a trophy in his first season - his team won the League Cup in February and Community Shield in August - Mourinho concludes the campaign with three trophies. Granted, this season has been far from vintage for Manchester United with Mourinho rightfully receiving criticism for his tactics and combative...

It wasn't just James' 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting that killed Cleveland , although it was surprising, given the 68 points he'd scored in the first two games of this series. Kyle Anderson scored 20 points to lead the Spurs, who were without Kawhi Leonard, Tony Parker and David Lee. He wasn't called for a foul in the second half, which was to be e...

When the two teams left Boston after Game 2 , the Cavs had beaten the Celtics by 44 points for the most lopsided win in Eastern finals history. Irving and Love scored a combined eight points on 4-6 shooting in the fourth quarter, which is efficient, but not enough when James is off.

Me personally, I didn't have it. Olynyk was even better - adding 15 points in relief, going 5-of-8 from the floor and 4-of-4 from the stripe. "Even though other people around say whatever they want, our team, we always believed in each other".

James had words with a fan after the Cavaliers blew a 21-point third quarter lead and lost 111-108. Thomas is a hero in Boston for his scoring exploits and how he led the team through the first two rounds after losing his little sister in a auto accident just before the first post-season game.

Rust set up Maatta's opening goal by grabbing a loose puck in the Ottawa zone - a common occurrence during the Senators' nightmarish first period - then dropping it to Maaatta. "We're going to have to push them out". The Ottawa coach opted for a half-hour practice ahead of Game 6 on Tuesday night to help his team "refresh" and "reload" after ...

The All-Star-laden Warriors became the first team in National Basketball Association history to enter the finals with a flawless 12-0 playoff record, with sweeps of the Portland Trail Blazers , Joe Ingles and Dante Exum's Utah Jazz and the Spurs .

Roman Josi eventually ended up scoring the game-winning goal on the power play with less than three minutes remaining in regulation. The Anaheim Ducks are repeatedly driving home one point against their opponents on their run to the Western Conference finals: No lead is safe against them.

That has been the hallmark of this team. "We certainly did not have any individual brilliance throughout the tournament". It's all about teamwork and we've been doing that regularly. In Stokes' absence, spinner Washington Sundar proved the unlikely hero with three wickets on Tuesday - forcing Mumbai to battle Kolkata Knight Riders for the...

Dixon turned in an average of 232.164 miles per hour across his four-lap qualifying session to capture pole position for Chip Ganassi Racing on a day that saw Honda-powered cars dominate proceedings, claiming 14 of the top 17 positions for the start.

He was 12 years old, he was small, slight, he was a centre midfielder, box-to-box, and a good passer of the ball. "When you arrive at this point of your career it's very important to feel yourself. Whatever team Antonio Conte picks, I don't think Sunderland will be able to stop the Blues from finishing their title-winning campaign on a high not...

History is also not on the Celtics side if they drop game two because no team in National Basketball Association history has ever come back from multiple 2-0 series deficits. The trio went a combined 11 of 21 from three-point range. And while a decent chunk of Brown's points came after the game was well in hand for the Cavs, even then he showed...

Likewise, although the neutrals prefer matches to flow and Oliver is amongst the division's most reluctant in terms of fouls per game, fouls per tackle and cards per game, that doesn't necessarily suit the Gunners. 'Champions League for different reasons is a wonderful competition. Actual footballing consequences riding on this one, with Live...

The Oilers need that gutsy effort and gamesmanship from the Rishaug tweet and they need that to turn into effective hockey. "I think it's going to come down to one game in terms of who wants it more". It was one of those nights you look back on once you've won a couple of Stanley Cups and pinpoint that moment in time as the one where the transfor...

It took Boston another seven minutes to catch up to Cleveland's Big Three. Irving bounced back from a rough Game 1, during which he just 4-for-11 from the field en route to 11 points, with a fantastic effort Saturday. The guys are really down. The damage had been done. But regardless of regular-season standings, everybody knew the Cleveland Cav...

Popovich said Leonard had only shot the past couple of days. "Couple jokes thrown his way here and there, couple boos, I don't think it's going to rattle him at all". "They're a way better team, obviously, with him on the court". This could easily be a six or seven-game series with a healthy Leonard. Of course, this lawsuit draws laughs and ch...

Yasmany Tomas homered and Paul Goldschmidt stole home on a double steal to cap a four-run rally in the third inning as the Arizona Diamondbacks sent the New York Mets to their sixth straight loss, 5-4 on Tuesday at Chase Field. Neither starter figured in the decision. He got help from relievers Andrew Chafin, Archie Bradley and Fernando Rodney...

Indeed, Red Bull's podium only occurred because Valtteri Bottas of Mercedes and Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari failed to finish. After four races of battling by proxy the two men went wheel to wheel in Spain, with Vettel aggressively defending the lead at one point with a wheel-banging move on the Mercedes driver.

With all due respect to Viktor Arvidsson ( who has been solid in his own right), Forsberg and Johansen took their games to another level last game. Nashville's first real challenge is plain to see. Cam Fowler found Rakell just barely onside as both teams were hustling their way to the bench, and the Nashville defenders failed to scramble back on...

Harvey pitched for the Mets in Atlanta a few hours after seeing the pictures and gave up six runs in five innings. Mets righthander Matt Harvey would only command a one-year, $10-15 million contract on the open market right now if he were a free agent, several current and former Major League Baseball executives told Bleacher Report.
